You can fly into san juan but you can fly into aguadilla too, which is closer to Rincon
Crazy how you read my mind. I have watched all of your videos and use them anytime I travel. Im headed to PR and Rincon in two weeks and was complaining that no one had a great video about it. Now here you are lol.
The reason why there's so many English speaking things, is because the U.S (mainland), has given the U.S citizens tax breaks to purchase land/houses/condos/etc, meanwhile the citizens of Puerto Rico, cannot afford to purchase houses/land/condos/etc., and no they don't get the same tax breaks.
PR doesn’t pay the US tax why give them tax breaks?
Not in Rincón, American have been moving to Rincón since 70s, had nothing to do with the Act 60.
Americans always been living in rincon
Here too north east coast people have bought homes and the locals can’t buy bc of the high prices.
Very true.
Yes, we went there as a family in June, '94. Two of my relatives from Ohio moved there for the last years of their lives, and just chilled. Had a house right by the beach. I was 19 at the time. We got to drink beers so that was great. Weather was great as well as the surf. Not a surfer and never have been. But PR in general is beautiful. Great people there as well!
I lived on the Beach Rincon puerto Rico 🇵🇷 in 1971 for many years and learned how to surf 🏄♂️ at Antonio's Beach and Maria's with 🌴 Palm Groves and Sugarcane fields ot was peaceful then I have roots in that area of Mayaguez after Maria's hurricane hit I went on a trip back and couldn't believe how much it's changed concrete jungle has taken over
I lived on the beach at steps in 95. Moved into a chicken coupe overlooking antonios n cows for $50 a month. Coupones n mushrooms
Hermoso rincón me encanta
Quiero comprar casa allá
@@SoyYoElMejorAmigoestá difícil encontrar en Rincón pero hay pueblos cerca de Rincón y las casa son más económicas si eres boricua debes saberlo.
I’m from Rincon, great town. My mom house is near where you are! I was raise when is was not so touristy
.. when you could drive down the road in a car with the top chopped off with a beer n wsve to policia adter running a red light.
As a Puerto Rican who took a trip here, I can tell you, it can be hard to get a relaxing beach vacation here. The beaches in Rincon have pretty strong waves. Great for surfing. Bathing, not so much.
Playa Balneario (the location in his video) is almost always calm.
I'm a local and we do not refer to North America as "mainland". The colony status is a huge thorn on our backsides. Please try using Spanish. We welcome everyone, but we appreciate efforts to learn about our culture and our small country. Please remind tourists to keep our beaches clean.
Come on it’s Rincón it’s like Condado full of Americans. Btw Newyoricans do call the US the mainland.
@@mmmmmm8606 oh the assumptions.
@@pawshands9706 Ohh the reality LOL. Btw born and raised in PR. Saludos! Adicional cosas referente a la cultura es como que mi campo. Que suerte la tuya.
@@mmmmmm8606 depende de la realidad que uno decide conocer. Sea justa o no. Suerte a usted
Absolutely agree me and my wife are from Boston and we have a house in cruces rincon and we luv the culture and town but nothing gets us more frustrated is when tourists don't pick up ther trash please people keep rincon clean it's one of the most beautiful places I've ever ben to
This video helped so much thanks Wolter! I plan on doing a work from home extended stay here during August- September
Randomly watching this video and I see my brother driving back from work lol. Good video. Rincon is nice but the prices are high. Aguada is right next to it and has some nice hidden gems.
Glad to see you visited the Rincon Boricua! We love that place, but deff gotta be ready for island time. Plenty of time to walk up to the Ricomini bakery! Yum!
Omg! The boys are so big!!
I know!!! It's scary sometimes
Thank you for visiting and your perspective on the Island. Have been following your videos for awhile, and I always have a blast learning from you.
Enjoy your stay Wolter!
Absolutely love your video I haven't been there since 2005 and now I get to go as an adult for a girls trip and this was the most useful information I found so far
That place sounds awesome
I would love to visit Puerto Rico in the near future
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED RINCON!! It was so peaceful! My family rented a house in the neighborhood. We literally were steps from the beach. We had the beach to ourselves since the closest resort was far down the beach. The food was also AMAZING!! I wish I could remember the name of the restaurant we ate at. It took a bit longer but it was the freshest seafood & delicious. I went in 2010
What a lovely and beautiful Porsche out there! I will try gather some money and visit.
@@sakhill10 Nothing equates investing, and when it's done properly, you don't need to get yourself all worked up about money anymore as it's creates alot of extra income.
@@auroralily286 You're 100% correct! making a habit of saving and investing can change not just your life but your closed relatives life too!
@@auroralily286 Any recommendation dear? I really need another source of income

Dinner: Taquería Vatos Locos
Domes Beach - Surfing and chil
Steps Beach - Snorqueling
Lighthouse - See the sunset and wale watching.
Greetings. You don't know of any houses that are selling in Rincón that are small, low cost
La ancla I think it was? Was a great beach with bar and restaurant right on the water
@@mimosasoundstudios3891yup La Ancla
Cowboys steak house in Rincon is one or the best steak house on the west coat of PR
My first time in Puerto Rico, I spend the majority of my time on the North part of the island. Rincon will definitely be the next place I will be staying!
I love that it says no dogs, and there is one in the background! :) Thank you so much for this informative video
What a nice inviting video 😁
Thanks for sharing! Next town? Quebradillas?
My hometown, my mom house is so close to your site.👍
Those kids are growing up! Holy cow!
Been there twice and it was interesting.
I’m in Rincon now! 💗
Thank you for clearing up the confusion regarding the “red light district”. 😂
With regards to car rentals at the airport it may sound obvious but don’t forget to make reservations way in advance specially during the busy season (e.g. Christmas) as it is not uncommon to not be able to find rentals one week ahead of your trip let alone trying to book upon arrival as I have seen some people do.
Funny someone would think a nuclear plant would be dirty. One of the cleanest sources of energy currently.
It is dirty. Yes the emissions are water vapor and it is clean but the nuclear waste is dirty as hell for 100 of 100 of 100 of years. Nuclear waste are buried or cover in cement to dump it in the deep ocean. That plant in specific were closed 3 years after opened due radiation leak, then were cover with cement just like chernobyl to minimize the radiation leak, BTW still leaking.
Nuclear energy, not unlike Bikers, get a bad rep that is not backed up with facts. Both are safe and not to be feared.
Glad that you like the island I'm from Vega Baja Puerto Rico and love your videos keepnit up with the great content
Got to love the lechon asado!
Moving to Isabela in July so I have watched literally TONS of PR videos and not one person besides you have mentioned the red lights. I was totally unaware! Thanks!
Your so lucky
I’m a local this is a great video. Thanks about the turtles 🐢 also whales 🐋 sharks etc
Nice video walter go to boquerón cabo rojo lots of tourist go there from all over the island and the u.s mainland.
Iam Puerto Rican living in Chicago and will be spending a month in Puerto Rico this winter.
Thank you for the video of Rincón as that’s where I’m headed and thank you for mentioning some of our authentic Puerto Rican dishes: We eat arroz con habichuelas or gandules( beans or pigeon peas), lechón, mofongo,pasteles (root vegetable n meat pie wrapped in banana leaf),pastelillos(aka empanadas),alcapurrias,
Tostones(green fried plantains) and Maduros (ripe sweet fried plantains) to name a few.
If you come to Puerto Rico to experience our culture, these are the foods you should be eating or trying.
Pls, Pls don’t come to PR looking for tacos and burritos, go to Mexico for that.
We sell tacos n burritos because that’s what ppl know as Hispanic food, and so we offer it but that is NOT PR food.
Pls pass that on Walter.
Love your videos!
I'm from the Missouri and visited Puerto Rico for the first time this summer and stayed in Rincon which was a great experience for me. After our trip, I've grown addicted to sweet fried plantain, seafood mofongos, and Ok Champagne Kola soda. I miss it there already 😢
awesome... will you do a "Do's and Don't of Dubai"?
I love that the sign says no dogs allowed, and it cuts to a guy playing with his dog in the beach.
try to visit Luquillo beach and Fajardo they are on the East of PR
THANK YOU 😊 FOR SHOWCASING THE BEAUTIES OF MY CARIBBEAN JEWEL. YOU DID AN AWESOME JOB WITH THIS SERIES.
Thank you
I want to buy a house there, I am
Want always to be there 💕 it where my mom was born raised along with family beautiful 😍 sites
🔥🔥🔥
My town, the best on the whole island!!!!
Wolter, next time, do a road trip around Puerto Rico and live through the "chinchorreo" experience. Eating will be cheaper and better!
Don't mess with the turtles!!
Up to $100,000 fine and 1 year in prison for each offense.
They're all Protected or Endangered.
its meat is delicious
@@SoyYoElMejorAmigo Yes your right about that but it's not so much of a big deal to go & get any other kind of meat!!
Hey when you're by yourself on the dunes or the beach just take what you need.
@@christianoliver3572 Actually, I was just kidding, I've never eaten turtle meat. Do you live in Rincon?
@@SoyYoElMejorAmigo No I'm a Texan and yes in the state to my right 🐢 soup is...
A delicacy??
It is tasty but just like. redfish we should calm ourselves about catching those turtles!
I mean land turtles.
NOT sea turtles!
Here in Corpus Christi we watch out for the Kemp Ridley sea turtles.
I hear a lot of people having issues with the water and electricity in Rincon. It's constant..
I moved from Rincón in 1984. Specifically Barrio Rio Grande. Selling my vote or succumbing to office politics isn’t my thing, so I moved. Now retired from corrections and living in Florida.
At first, I thought you meant Rincon Georgia:)
If you want cheaper restaurants you can find them in Aguada and Añasco (the 2 neighboring towns)
And, in El Campo- countryside, anywhere.
you call them mainlanders ? We still a colony I know that !!! be respectful with the locals even if we decide to keep our Spanish language.
I will talk about this in the donts of PR video
@@woltersworld I am a local fully bilingual but love to challenge the "mainlanders" to speak Spanish. Just you know so they can have fun while in the island.
What do you mean when you say "there's some spanish still, don't worry"???
Rincon is mostly white Americans now. They took over.
That's wrong. There is Spanish everywhere- we live here. And, it is as it should be.
even nascar tracks only max out at 31° angles of banking
Stuck in US want ⛱️ sand n all 😊 stuff
Puerto Rico was a fantastic place in every respect, but for one. worst drivers ever encountered. loved everything about Puerto Rico, hated driving.
If you don't want drive stay in Isla Verde or Old San Juan...
Do I have to fly into San Juan or is there another place to fly in and grab a rental car that is closer?
You can fly into Aguadilla. Nice small airport.
Is there still the "Puerto Rican Liberation Army"? Like in the 1970ties?
Maybe... but the consumer culture of the metropolis has dulled the radicalism of the independence movement. Take that for what it's worth.
Are you aware that when you end your sentences, it sounds like you are asking a question? A declarative sentence goes down at its end. A question goes up! The school teacher in me!
Nice sharing 👌👍
Good luck my dear friend ❤️
New friend here 💕
Please stay connected 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I have my house in Jaguey , The mountain living is the best
Was at Playa Sardineras today in Isabela and I pucked up 10 cans left on the beach by locals.... Not tourists!!!
FYI Rincon is one of the, if not, the most gentrified areas out of all Puerto Rico. It's filled predominantly with white Americans. It's English speaking, the only place on the island were they celebrate the 4th of July. If you want to have a Puerto Rico experience with out Puerto Ricans, but instead with white Americans Rincon is the place for you!!! Literally it feels like a Mini Florida. Enjoy (G)rincon as us Puerto Ricans call it!!!!!!
Thanks for the heads up. Last place I’d visit. 👍
Dude Puerto Rico always celebrate 4th of July though
@@Jumbo37279 Why would we celebrate the independence day of the country that took away ours?
@@ed209ish alot of us Don’t want to be independent and we never were independent Spain owned pr
@@Jumbo37279 and now US owns us. By the way we were semi independent for about a year. Then the U.S. invaded PR.
Bienvenido a usted y a todos los norteamericanos que nos quieran visitar, de hecho orgullosamente somos parte de USA....Espero que disfruten su estadía 🇵🇷🇺🇲
Si. Pero que después se vayan.
Thank you right on time do me a favor no blasting reggeton on crash boat beach all of your college students go home and again please go see your family
RINCÓN THE GRINGOLANDIA hehe lol
How to tell people to stalk up at a market then a resteraunt with a straight face,,,
It is not a two hour drive. Three to four hours
Rincón will be my retirement city
You should see Istanbul its the only major European city you haven't been to or at least made a video on.
It's more expensive because of the gentrification and many Americans illegally buying property or taking advantage of my people in Puerto Rico. Everything has to be shipped from the USA. Prices are 3 times higher.
I am a gringa and we aren't doing those things. We don't want special treatment- we don't own a property. Btw, hubby is Puerto Rican.
Don’t go surfing… too crowded
1 Rule: Locals have priority and I mean it.
Don’t go to Rincon and bring a Unitedstatesian attitude… the culture has changes so much since extremely entitled people from the states started coming in larger numbers. Just gross
It will be Rincon for all those gringos who are there by law 22, that's not Rincon anymore
